Renal fibrosis and inflammation in rats with sham or renal ablation/infarction (A/I) operation. 4 weeks after sham or 5/6 ablation/infarction (A/I) operation, SD rats were treated with vehicle or 100 mg/kg MLB by i.p. once daily for another 8 weeks. Representative images of Masson’s trichrome staining (a). The expression of FN, Col-I, CTGF and IL-6 in renal tissues were analyzed by Western blotting (b). One representative of three independent experiments is shown. The result of Western blotting was quantified by densitometry. Data represent mean ± SE
